CORE SERVICES AT THE CENTER INCLUDE:
•Peer Support: All staff at the Bartow County PSWRC are trained and certified by the State of Georgia to provide peer support as Certified Peer Specialists—Mental Health.
•Respite: Georgians 18 years of age or older who self-identify as living with a mental health concern may utilize one of the three private bedrooms for 7 nights every 30 days as an alternative to psychiatric hospitalization. Respite is also available for peers who may be overwhelmed by life challenges, and could benefit from support. Participation in recovery and wellness activities is entirely voluntary.
•Peer2Peer Warm Line: The staff at the Bartow County PSWRC provide peer support over the phone 24/7/365, and because they are local, they can help callers identify resources in the community to achieve and maintain their recovery and wellness goals; and, they really listen to each caller, and they care.
